From The Telegraph:
Wesley Hosie, 25, found the yellow and red sweet by chance as he and his girlfriend tucked into a 700g jar from The Jelly Bean Factory.
Mr Hosie and girlfriend Jessica White, 24, from Taunton, Somerset, kept the mango-flavoured bean and now plan to sell it on eBay for £500.
Mr Hosie said: “As Jessica opened the jar, I saw her immediately. She was literally lying there staring back at me.”
Tasty!
Religious groups in New Zealand are up in arms over Hell Pizza’s new ad campaign featuring inverted pentagrams on pizzas and buns. From The Christian Post:
The controversial pizza chain has put up billboards in Auckland, the largest city in New Zealand, with a photo of its hot cross bun decorated with an inverted pentagram, which Satanists have adopted as their symbol. Next to the photo of the bun is the tagline, “For a limited time. A bit like Jesus.”
“They [Hell Pizza] join a long line of advertising that’s in questionable taste that slings off things that lots of people hold precious,” said Lloyd Ashton, the media officer of the Anglican Church in New Zealand, according to The New Zealand Herald.
Hell Pizza director Warren Powell says:
“First of all, we’re acknowledging that Jesus Christ may have been on Earth for a limited time,” said Powell, according to the local publication. “Again, it’s a debate. I think if people take it that way then they’re being a little bit single-minded.”
If I saw this ad I would totally order from Hell Pizza.
Update: A couple of savvy DM readers point out that Hell Pizza reminds them of Mr. Show’s “Marilyn Mozzorella’s Pizza Rella Pie Parlours” sketch. Indeed, it does.

Can we stop using the term “Hipster” and just call ‘em “characters who like hot jazz” instead? Works for me. Niall?

Clever. It reminds me a lot of the Tom Hank’s trash can.

My testicles are cowering behind the couch. I’m trying to coax them out with a cup of warm milk.
Ladies, this may be therapeutic for some of you.
Butch Tuffington made this short video using “Happy Birthday” by electronic music pioneer Delia Derbyshire.
As usual, Mr.Tuffington delivers something both cosmic and comic. Zen montage with a lysergic twist.
